    Anyone else out there in Talkbassland got one of these?

    I've had it around 3 months having bought it as new off ebay for a song (£300).

    Apart from the garish red strings ( I think they are DR's, I intend to put Elixirs on as per new) it has a lovely tone and feel for a passive bass.

    It is neck through and the body literally bolts on, apparently you can buy different bodies...if you wish!

    It would be nice to speak with someone else who has one:meh:?

    Looks pretty nice though I think I would prefer it if the pickup was a little closer to the bridge.

    Wow! Unless this is a bottom of the line version of this bass that is really rare, you got a great deal. They were $2000-2500USD last year. Excellent score (I think!).:bassist:
